According to the Sunday Times Rich List, the richest people of the UK have seen a comeback in their fortunes. In 2009 a lot of people had seen their wealth shrinking, but the fortunes have risen with 30% comparing to last year. The top three consists of Arcelor Mittal owner Mr. Mittal, Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich, and the Duke of Westminster. Mr. Mittal’s fortune grew by 50% because of the recovery of the global steel industry. The Indian businessman Anil Agarwal was the highest climber by moving up 60 places all the way up to number 10.
Opinion:
I think it is ridiculous that those people have so much money. It is even more disturbing that those fortunes have risen with 30% comparing to last year, which is the biggest jump in 22 years. I do not understand how millions of people live in poverty around the world, while those people have billions and billions on their bank accounts. I am sure that some people have worked really hard for this money, but some people were just born that rich already. Money makes life easier, but I would never like to have as much money as the people who are in the Sunday Times Rich List.
